Supporting Families (Early Help Offer)
At Tardebigge CE First School we recognise the challenges that families face in bringing up children. There may be times when you need extra help and support. If this is the case, please come and talk to us.
Early Help is a pathway to supporting you and your child as they grow up, when you or they may need further support or guidance.
Providing early help to our pupils and families at Tardebigge CE First School means we can improve outcomes for children, families and communities, providing support as soon as a problem emerges, at any point in a child’s life, from the early years through to teenage years.
Early Help can support children and their families who may be struggling with:
- - Routines and family rules
- - Families who may be not be eating healthy food
- - Keeping to a healthy lifestyle
- - Children who may not want to go to school for different reasons
- - Disability within the family including children being a young carer
- - Children in the family have special educational needs (SEND)
- - Children who may becoming involved in anti-social or criminal behaviour
- - Children who go missing from home
- - Children or parents / carers misusing drugs or alcohol
- - Children at risk of being tricked, forced or made to work in the criminal world
- - Children who may need support because they may live in a home and see drug or alcohol abuse, adult mental health problems or have parents who argue a lot (and sometimes might hurt each other)
- - Children at risk of being groomed to join groups which support illegal views
- - A privately fostered child (a child from another family living within your family home)
Early help relies upon local groups and people in the community, sometimes we work together to help children, young people, and their families.
